If there is any primer that has not stopped impressing me its this one. The Make Up For Ever Color Correcting Step 1 Primers have gone through quite a few makeovers and I have been using it for so long to have tried almost all the versions/reformulations/packaging changes! I first tried it in 2014 when it was called the HD Primer in Shade Yellow (review), then in 2016, I bought it in the new tube packaging and was called the Step 1 Equalizer Primer in Yellow (review) and then I repurchased it in 2022 as the Color Correcting Step 1 Primer in Dullness Eraser. So now you know, it t ..read more

First post of 2023! And I can't be happier to share my favorite scent for the season, the new Miss Dior Eau de Parfum!

Happy Monday beauties! Ever since I watched The Crown on Netflix, I wanted to wear a blue eyeliner in my waterline but couldn't find a smudge proof and waterproof formula that would really stay put in the waterline without bleeding. My search ended when I found these beautiful shades by EyeSense especially the Cobalt shade which I absolutely adore and no matter how hard I rub it, they do not budge! Watch my reel on Instagram and see for yourself and the best part is that I can easily remove it with my micellar water!  EyeSense eyeliners by SeneGence are highly pigmented, wa ..read more

This powder foundation promises to be a ‘transfer-proof compact foundation that visibly reduces shine and provides up to 24 hours of natural-looking, matte coverage with a smooth, refined finish’. I loved the finish of this compact as it definitely lives upto that promise. It results in a velvelty smooth feel on skin and the shade 3N is a great match to my skin tone. The only problem is that it too oxidizes as the day goes on and turns quite pink/orange on my skin. I actually loved this compact but decided to return it since, I couldn't bear the orange look on my face. In this post you will f ..read more

Presenting the Sephora Birthday Gift VIB & Rouge Edition for 2022 This year Sephora had two extra gift options to pick for if you are a VIB or a Rouge member. I picked up the Nest Fragrance set because I have always loved Nest perfumes and I love how generous the trial sizes from Sephora are - they are perfect for travelling. This set includes a mini candle, a perfume oil and a Nest perfume roller ball and all three of them smell like the holidays to me!! This year Sephora offered two additional choices just for VIB and Rouge members apart from the gift sets offered to all Beauty Insiders ..read more

This deal is too good to pass! Two full size NARS Climax Mascaras for only CA$ 40 from Sephora Canada!! I am always so excited about gift sets because I get some really amazing products at great prices but this just went up a notch. Usually there is a mini and a full size mascara in a holiday gift set but this is so much better! I usually use my mascaras for 3-4 months so these two tubes must last me 6-7 months and all that for just 40 bucks! Maybe I need to stock up on this one!

I cheated on my long term favorite, Double Wear Foundation by Estee Lauder for this Dior Forever Skin Glow foundation and things did not workout exactly as I had hoped for. This Dior Foundation looked amazing on Sephora shelves so I got myself color matched to the shade 3N and bought it in an instance. Little did I know that betrayals came at a price and for me that price was the oxidation! Yes this perfect shade for my skin tone turns into an awful orange shade within 10 minutes of application. More on this with comparison swatches in today's blog. DIOR Forever Skin Glow Hydrating Fou ..read more

Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara (CAD 38) has been part of my makeup routine for the past six months and today I wanted to share this cult favorite mascara on my blog because its pretty darn good! I purchased two of these gift sets during the holiday sale at Sephora and I am so happy I did because its a fantastic fail-proof mascara to use on an everyday basis. I layer the Diorshow Iconic Overcurl mascara with the Maximizer 3D (which is a voluminizing primer included in this set), to get sky high lashes when I feel like getting some extra volume. This is hands down a must have masca ..read more

I hate false lashes! I can't stand the extra and completely unnecessary drama on the eyes! And every time I look at someone with extra dramatic lashes, I cringe!! I don't think anyone looks good with false lashes on a daily basis but I know there is a time and place for it which I will talk about later in this post. I much prefer the lash extensions look because there is no visible band on the eyelids and it definitely looks much better in person too. And the redness on eyes of fake lash wearers! Like why would anyone do that do themselves? Glueing something to your precious eyes, getting th ..read more
